UNSPSC 10217705: Live forsythia intermedia

Live plant including the root ball of the intermedia variety of forsythia

UNSPSC 10217705 Live forsythia intermedia is a Commodity code covering a single ornamental plant species, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span a much broader range of landscape planting, installation, and environmental restoration work. State and local governments buy native plant materials, irrigation systems, coastal dune stabilization plantings, invasive species removal, and ongoing site maintenance under this code, though the actual species and scope vary widely across projects. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County Georgia, Pasco County Florida, Collier County Florida, Pinellas County Florida) and municipalities (City of Dallas Texas), with Pinellas County and Collier County appearing multiple times in recent procurement activity, suggesting sustained environmental restoration and coastal resilience initiatives in Florida.

Recent opportunities show strong activity in Florida, Texas, and Georgia. Pasco County issued an IFB for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road covering 2.95 miles with a contract ceiling of $120,000, due April 14, 2026. Collier County solicited bids via Quick Quote for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, a post-hurricane coastal dune restoration involving 56,250 native plants across approximately 225,000 square feet, with responses due March 13, 2026. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026 for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across a five-year contract period spanning mitigation sites and wetlands, with proposals due July 29, 2025. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation for plants in January 2026 due February 3, 2026. The code shows no recent relevant activity in the first opportunity listed (DeKalb County's tennis center IT infrastructure reconstruction), indicating a mismatch between the code assignment and the actual work being bought.
